  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Pray for Mary

Hey guys, I was online earlier tonight, and I get an instant message on my AIM name. This girl named Mary is 18 years old. As a child she was beaten by her mom, her brother and her grandma until 8th grade. A short time later, Mary began cutting herself, burning herself, doing drugs, drinking alcohol and feeling worthless. Please pray for Mary that God can heal her of all of this. It is so much for her to handle, and I just pray that she can have the strength to get passed this and lead a life away from the cutting and the feeling of worthlessness and that she will lead a life dedicated to the Lord, and allow Him to show her worthiness and love. :amen:

Dear Lord,

I pray for Mary Lord that she would know your love and comfort and peace. Please protect her from others and from herself. Please heal her of this feeling to need to hurt herself. Please watch over her and call her to you if she doesn't know you. Thankyou Lord, Amen

Zach, I am praying for Mary right now. :prayer: God is so wonderful that He has put you in her life to show her real love. I work with youth at church and I am close to a girl that is cutting. She has similar things in her past as Mary's and I found, and am finding, that just really loving and giving positive words and encouraging words and a lot of positive touch has helped a lot with this girl. I also gave her the second chapter of a Purpose Driven Life to read and that too also helped her to look at herself through God's eyes. Praying that Mary would know of her worth in Jesus' eyes.

Lord please be with Mary as you lead her to you and that she needs to find counseling as well as a place to stay where that place will love and take good care of her. May she lean on you as her Savior & Lord. Amen!!

Heavenly Father, i pray that you would move in Mary's life. Lord, that you would fill her with your Spirit, that she would have a new sense of who she is. Father, that she would realise that she is a daughter of the living God, that she is loved more than anything by you, and that she has a large family around the world that loves, and is praying for her. Lord, i pray that you would work in her life that she may change her ways. Lord, that she would be healed from the abuse that she went through while younger, and that she would be able to stop inflicting pain upon herself, and giving herself over to the ways of the world. Lord, i pray that she would find comfort only in you, and not look for it in alchol or drugs, and that she would devote everything that she does to glorifying your name. In Jesus' name i pray, amen

dear Lord, I pray for Mary. I agree with Ginga who posted above. We want so much Lord that she could know Your tender love and know in her heart and mind how very very much You care about her, how highly You regard her, how precious she is to You. I pray, send Your workers into her life who will encourage her and give her loving truth in the way that was described in another prayer above. I pray she will respond to this love with faith towards you. I pray for the people already in her life, give them words of love, give them Your heart for her. In Jesus' name amen.
